triton's Introduction

`Documentation`

Triton

This is the development repository of Triton, a language and compiler for writing highly efficient custom Deep-Learning primitives. The aim of Triton is to provide an open-source environment for expressing tensor math workloads that offers high flexibility, developer productivity and end to end performance.

The foundations of this project are described in the following MAPL2019 publication: Triton: An Intermediate Language and Compiler for Tiled Neural Network Computations. Please consider citing this work if you use Triton!

The official documentation contains installation instructions and tutorials.

Quick Installation

You can install the latest stable release of Triton from pip:

pip install triton

Binary wheels are available for CPython 3.6-3.9 and PyPy 3.6-3.7.

And the latest nightly release:
